Congratulations we bought at BLT this year too.

Congratulations we bought at BLT this year too.

Thanks. It was actually an add-on for us -- had trouble finding that October Use Year.

After staying in a 1 BR at DVC once for a night before a week at the GF, regular rooms (even at the deluxe hotels) seemed very inconvenient (we're a family of 5). After staying in a 1 BR at DVC for our first 8 day trip, a 1 BR seemed inconvenient, so we had to buy enough points to allow us to stay in a 2 BR. Not sure what comes next; not sure I want to know.

Congratulations for the add on, I am sure in a few years we will need to add on too. Our kids are small enough that we are good with a studio but we will out grow that soon enough.

We don't even have kids and we've already got the itch to upsize to a 1 bedroom for our Food and Wine trips.

I have a new data point to add. And I think there may be something to ROFR getting reviewed in Tuesdays, because the 30 day deadline wasn't until Saturday.

Still pending closing, but I figure you can add it to the database since we were notified today that ROFR was waived, and that's what you are tracking. It is for 250 points at SSR for $52/point. It includes 195 current year points, and all subsequent year points. Buyer pays closing costs, and pro-rated fees (1 month - $99). I tried to put it in format below:

250 SSR (Aug), $52, 195 '12 pts, all '13 points buyer pays closing, split mf (sub 9/27, passed 10/23)

Two week stay or 2 trips per year.

I haven't even passed ROFR on my first contract and want to add on.

I found out that Disney decided to exercise ROFR on 10/17

OKW 210 pts August UY

$50/pt, buyer and seller split closing and MFs

August 12 - 420 pts (210 banked), 13 - 210 pts

Submitted to ROFR on 9/19

I was pretty much expecting Disney to snatch it up, but when I was almost at 30 days I actually was starting to build up hope that it might pass

In January/February we found out on a Tuesday as well. So there maybe a good chance that your theory is true.

I haven't even passed ROFR on my first contract and want to add on.

I can see how buying resale is addicting.

 

[lovesdumbo]

If Tuesday is the day I should hear next Tuesday as my contract went to Disney on 10/1. I'm not worried it won't pass but am anxious to get things completed so I can make an Aug reservation before the 7 month window opens up. And just can not wait to be an owner.

Sorry to hear that, would have been a good deal.

Omg.. I'm with you on this. My contract was also submitted on 10/1 and every tuesday i'm waiting to see if theres anything on my email.. none. so i guess you and i are on the same boat. I'm so anxious as I want to make an April reservation.. and its already 7 months passed. ugh.. Goodluck to you.!

And i'm back at it again, watching some smaller points to add on while I havent passed ROFR yet. haha. i think i'm not alone on this.. so addicting.

Hi there! Our contract was submitted to Disney by Fidelity on 10/11. Does Disney put out a weekly list of transactions to the public or do we wait to hear back from Fidelity? This is our first DVC purchase (hopefully)!!

Thanks! Amy

You will get an email from Fidelity when they hear. We heard first thing from them last Tuesday morning.

 

[MickeyFan612]

passed OKW $50/pt April 190 2011, 190 2012 and forward. I pay closing seller pay 2012 maint. fees

One small hiccup... It will take an extra week to close. I will be the third owner and somehow the original deceased owner (RIP) is still on deed and he must be removed! Apparently Disney didn't want to wait extra week so Lucky me!

 

[tjcat]

3rd times a charm!
Our 3rd try and this one passed!
SSR 150 Feb use year 149 banked 2012 points, $60/point.
Buyer pays C.C./Split M.F.
I know this is more than what some people paid per point but I was getting nervous after having Disney ROFR 2 OKW contracts!
Thanks to everyone for your help, now to add on or not......

 

[tjcat]

SSR 150, FEB use year $60/point Buyer pays CC, Split MF for 2012
